This is my official entry into the afro contest started by Fat_Wilhelm in the PR thread.
This is me getting arrested in Hawaii on my honeymoon. It was halloween (hence the fro) and girls were flashing their goodies downtown on main street....so naturally, I flashed back...I think it was discrimination. Noooooobody minded the T&A but the second I whip out the junk, old ladies started fainting and people start screamin...




A few months later, I sent this out as a Christmas card to all my friends and family. Why? Cause fuck em, that's why.

Also called power-rack. Its basically an improved squatrack with adjustable safety pins, making it possible e.g. to squat or bench heavy without risking to be stuck under the bar.
The safety pins are also used when doing such things rack pulls, i.e. a deadlift variants where you start with the bar in a certain height e.g. knee-height. It can also be used to lots of barbellcurls in, with the risk of being beaten to death by angry powerlifters...
